DIABLE VERT, LE (The Green Devil). French-Canadian, Reel (cut time). G Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB. The reel is from the playing of Quebec fiddler Claude Méthé (of the band Manigance), who may have obtained it from Aimé Gagnon. It was picked up by contra dance musicians in western Massachusetts and has since become a contra dance favorite.
